The St. Louis Rams waited patiently to make an addition at quarterback after losing starter Sam Bradford for the season. On Monday, they made their move by claiming quarterback Case Keenum off waivers from the Houston Texans.http://www.rams-news.com/watt-gets-paid-robert-quinns-turn-coming-wagoner/%5D Watt gets paid, Robert Quinn’s turn coming –Wagoner

By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/11231/morning-ram-blings-sam-lands-in-dallas
EARTH CITY, Mo. — As teams finalized their practice squads Tuesday afternoon, former St. Louis Rams defensive end Michael Sam looks to have finally found a landing spot.
Our Adam Schefter reported that Sam was headed to Dallas for a physical and, so long as everything goes well on that, will be signed to the Cowboys’ practice squad Wednesday.
Earlier in the day, NFL Nation columnist Kevin Seifert took a closer look at the football reasons Sam did not land on an active roster.
ESPNDallas’ Tim McMahon followed by explaining why Sam going to Dallas would make a lot of sense for both parties.
Cowboys reporter Todd Archer writes that the Cowboys need all the help they can get when it comes to the pass rush.
On a number of levels, Sam landing in Dallas should be a good move for his career. It’s a better fit than the Rams from a football standpoint, though it won’t offer the easy and comfortable fit Sam had in St. Louis.
Nonetheless, the most important thing here is that Sam is getting a chance to continue pursuing his football dream. And given Dallas’ lack of pass rushing options, it wouldn’t surprise if he turns a practice squad opportunity into an eventual shot on the active roster.
